Featured Event!

Location:

County-Wide

Created and performed by organist and narrator, Dr. Jeannine Jordan and David Jordan, media artist.

Around the World in 80 Minutes is a fast-moving organ and multi-media concert that features unique global organ repertoire by native composers, lively anecdotes, and enriching and engaging multi-media including live camera projection and spectacular visuals.

We’ll start our journey in your US city and head east to the countries of Europe – the birthplace of the organ and polyphonic music. After making various stops on this musically diverse continent our travels will take us south for a brief stop on the intriguing continent of Africa. Traveling east again we visit the colorful continents of Asia, Australia (and New Zealand) before returning to the vibrant North and South American continents. Finally as the 80 minutes comes to a close we will return to our very own United States of America and home to your city. It’s a whirlwind tour of music, story, and visual imagination.

Jeannine is a champion of the organ and its music. She has traveled throughout the US and the world promoting and sharing organ music through her innovative concerts. As a professional organist she enjoys a varied career. Besides concertizing and recording, Jeannine has held university teaching positions and has served in a variety of positions in church music ministry. She is also the President and founder of Pro-Motion Music — a company celebrating the world of the organ.
